tiggy Posted May 5, 2004 #1 Share Posted May 5, 2004 A while back, someone mentioned a great Italian restaraunt in Fairbanks. The search function isn't working right now, so I'm having great difficulty in finding the thread. What is the name of this restaraunt? My new husband and I would like to go out for a nice meal and he LOVES garlic. Thanks! Honeymoon in Alaska on the Dawn Princess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinydancer21 Posted May 5, 2004 #2 Share Posted May 5, 2004 I live in North Pole and work in Fairbanks (they are about 20 miles apart) the best Italian resturants in Fairbanks are Gamberdella's and Geraldo's, Geraldo's is famous for garlic (yummy) but Gamberdella's has a better atmosphere and is in walking distance to downtown so after dinner you could walk around downtown and see the sights. [img]http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] Gamberdella's also has EXCELLENT food, I love it, I work right across the river and walk over for lunch all the time in the summer. If you need any other info about Fairbanks you can write me at [email]tinydancer21@yahoo.com[/email], I was born and raised here and used to work for Princess Tours.

Budget Queen Posted May 6, 2004 #3 Share Posted May 6, 2004 I too highly recommend Geraldos. But will you have a car?? Highly recommended in Fairbanks. I also like the Turtle Club and Chatanika lodge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal1993 Posted May 6, 2004 #4 Share Posted May 6, 2004 Geraldo's was recommended to me from someone who has lived there for 20 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinydancer21 Posted May 7, 2004 #5 Share Posted May 7, 2004 Turtle Club is one of the most popular resturants for the local, they are famous for their prime rib, not italian though. Chatinika Lodge is cool but if you don't have a rental car it's a pretty long drive. If you do choose to eat at Geraldo's instead of Gamberdella's make sure they take you to the one on College road, not the new one on Airport Road. The one on College is the original and way better. The one on Airport is O.K. but the atomosphere is not as good and the resturant is small and can get really hot in the summer. BTW: In case anyone is wondering if I'm a reputable sorce of info. about Fairbanks, I think I am I'm second generation Fairbankian, my paternial grandparents came to Fairbanks in 1950, my dad was born and raised here as was I. My mom was born and raised in Juneau, and so was my maternal grandma. Plus I worked for Princess for almost two years, granted I worked for Priness almost five years ago, but I work for the local government now so I'm still in the know.
